OK, had to clean up this post, posted rpm2pet and deb2pet in one package, scripts for converting .deb and .rpm packages to dotpets
You need:
unrpm.undeb.pet -> scroll down for attached pet from MU's post

There are more versions of dep2pet, differencies are in GUI usage, and dir2pet usage, see description in attachments below.

Aaaah, so it's not dependent on it then, I can remove the link from the main post? I thought dpkg-deb is plugin for Xarchiver? I know I had to install it for unpacking debs, or it was for rpms only?_________________Dpup 487 | Puppy Gallery | My photo gallery | mtPaint works

Cause I cannot get any 3D related with any platform (neither Win nor Lin) run.

But I see others are running them with joy. I feel so lonly left alone in this cold dark technological ice age.

No one can break apart from his path from the past. I was and am a graphics guy happy with modelling human figures with 3D apps and making textures with good old trusty Photoshop.

With a great interest in Linux and many terrible experiences with Bill's commercial rip off windows, I want leave windows and am in searching for better computing experience with Linux. However the perfect solution to run any 3D app is yet to be found. Like the song "Yellow ribbon", "I am still in Windows prison"

Having tried for 5 long years asking people how to run Max, Maya, XSI on Linux or run less capable K3D, Wings 3D and Blender in native Linux environment, I now stop to think. What am I doing? Am I chasing a ghost?
I am getting real tired of all this.

When I ran MediaPup with my wife's notebook who takes it with her to school, the wine worked well and ran Wings 3D without a hitch. When I try to run Wings 3D with my very own PuppyLinux 4.12, it refused to run.
My puppy does all the tricks except 3D thing.

I kept asking people who build new puppies wine-built-in-as-standard-and 3d-ready but no one is interested in that. As if it is not needed. No one seems to be in for 3 dimensional modelling and animating even for fun.

At the age of going bald and all gray hair, I sit by the computer feeling hopeless. Maybe Making my very own 3D Puppy is the thing I have to do by myself. Estimating the time left for me, I wonder if I can complete it before I die. I don't even know where to start.(Maybe Barry's How puppy works page?)

Seemingly simple task like a plain vanilla barebone Puppy JUST with wine to work with 3DSMax v7 and Photoshop 7(Photoshop works now) isn't getting any real help.

It IS an irony in this age of information and internet communities, which I have hard time to understand.

Even today, I have to dual boot to run Max for my new Max book and keep fighting with endless array of "new and improved" virus.

People who make virus, spyware,malware, Don't you have better things to do?

Sorry, LOL.

So dramatic!

ONT: Perhaps it's a hardware problem? It seems so, after what I have read.
